I see two ways to fix this: - use skip-networking instead bind-address (Christian, can you give me some details about the change in 4.1.9-2?) - check in mysql-server's preinst script if the lo interface is up, and abort installation of the package with a meaningful warning if it's down By the way, I'm still unable to reproduce this bug, the mysql-server package installs fine on my systems even with the lo interface down.
